Sweet car, I would take it over a Vanquish or a Cont. GT any day.

The R8 is nice, but needs a better engine.

When it gets the V-10 in it, we'll talk about it then.

I guess. But I still like the aesthetic better than that of the Bentley and the DB9

A V10 will make this a great car.

They're already showing the 10 cyl. model on the 09' auto show circuit. It's almost surprising to think Audi could create a car this extreme in styling....I love them.

Oh the irony, you would hate to hear that rappers also love big body Benz's (S Classes). The same applies to Lamborghini's, Ferrari's, Maserati's, Rolls, Range Rover's, and 7 Series BMW's. In all honesty, one shouldn't care about perception, just choose the car that fits you best.

You made a good choice though.

Styling-wise, I think the Bangle cars are the most popular fugly cars on the road.

Outside of the Vanquish, a used DB9 would make a viable choice (if backseat room wasn't an issue). I would also consider a used Maserati Gran Turismo, especially since depreciation has been falling like bricks.

4-seater GT cars and luxury performance sedans ALWAYS fall like bricks in depreciation.

They've had a test mule out on the track. And it erupted in flames. Audis with an engine problem, why isn't this the first time I've heard of it??

Ehh that seems a little harsh as that V10 is probably the same one in the S6/Gallardo and I haven't heard of any major issues with it. I doubt we'll see an R8 with a V10 (even though I'm in favor of it). I think Volkswagen Group would have a problem trying to price it.
